This recipe is great, though there is a bit too much vinegar for my taste. I used white wine vinegar which I think is better, and next time I'll probably use half the amount. Otherwise, fantastic recipe. Don't forget to add a pinch of salt...

I followed this recipe almost exactly (I let the mixture sit for 3 hours instead of 1 because I had to go do something.) It was delicious! We have so many tomatoes from the garden, I'll be making this again.

I don't know what it was about this gazpacho but it came out awful. The sherry vinegar (which normally I love with anything tomato-based) was strong enough to make me choke. I ended up tossing the soup. I'm going to stick with the gazpacho recipe I love that's also on Epi--Andalusian Gazpacho.

Followed the recipe
to the letter. The
bread I used was a
homemade half-white
sourdough.
Absolutely delicious
and oh so
refreshing. I think
to serve I'll pop a
bottle of Tabasco on
the table. Am
serving it tonight
with some chicken
legs marinated in
marjoram, garlic,
lemon juice, salt,
pepper and olive
oil. Can't wait!

Really good! I made it with tomatoes and
a cucumber (not English) right out of the
garden. I didn't add quite as much water
because the tomatoes surrendered a lot
of liquid during preparation. Freshly
ground black pepper and salt were added
individually at the table. What I really liked
was that the spices were more in added
complexity rather than heat. Excellent.

Because raw onion doesn't agree with us, I cooked the onion, giving a sweeter flavor, and a good contrast to the vinegar. I used only about a 1/5 cup of vinegar and wished I'd used less: add it by spoonfuls! Peeled and pureed the tomatoes, peeled the peppers, and only processed about 1/2 of the soup. Our tomatoes had very little juice, so I added a little water when pureeing the bread as a last step. Couldn't taste the paprika; and should it be hot or sweet paprika?
I think this recipe would also work without the vinegar and bread as a delightful fresh tomato soup.
